Mean arterial pressure and brain tissue oxygen tension. Median (interquartile range) arterial pressure (MAP) and brain tissue oxygen tension (PtbO2) in pigs (n = 9) with induced hemorrhagic shock. Note that during the period of hemorrhagic shock the declining MAP was accompanied by a decrease in PbtO2 near critical levels (< 15 mmHg). After re-infusion of autologous blood MAP increased to close to baseline level whereas PbtO2 increased to levels above baseline. Time 0 indicates achievement of MAP equal to 40 mmHg
